historical beta estimates. They then regressed average monthly excess returns on beta. They found that their data showed support for CAPM as it was broadly consistent with the predictions of the model. Another early empirical study of CAPM is by Fama and MacBeth (1973). They tested if there was a positive linear relationship between average returns and beta. They also examined whether the squared value of beta and the volatility of the return on an asset can explain the residual variation in average returns
HAMLET was the play, or rather Hamlet himself was the character, in the intuition and exposition of which I first made my turn for philosophical criticism, and especially for insight into the genius of Shakspeare, noticed. This happened first amongst my acquaintances, as Sir George Beaumont will bear witness; and subsequently, long before Schlegel had delivered at Vienna the lectures on Shakspeare, which he afterwards published, I had given on the same subject eighteen lectures substantially the
